It's support from across the country that keeps our spirits up.
We were thinking about all of you. You were missed, but were present in our hearts!

Believe me, Kristinn, I know the frustration of trying to get people to do things. You announce, you advertise, you plead, you try to motivate, and in spite of all that people will find other things to do, and after the chore/event they will invariably turn up saying, "If I had known you were doing this I would have been there to help." Grrrrrrrr.
If there had been any possible way for me to be there, I would have been there. I was so hoping for Jim to have a large crowd. I'm happy about our FR rating as #2 conservative political website though. Thank you and all the Freepers who did the hard work. We appreciate you and love you. Eagles up!

Why I was not in DC
I've volunteered and supported the US Coast Guard,
each and every week, without missing a single week since Oct 2001,
by actually training and doing their job on base,
including (but not limited to)
radio watch standing, updating crew training records
and commercial and recreational vessel exams.

Wonderful report Kristinn... and thanks to all who made it a priority & were able to attend.
(God knows how I tried to be with you)
I guess I must express frustration that some many LOCAL & not too far away folks did not participate.. but it is like so many things in life.. lotsa talk & no action from many. The obvious absence of the silent majority?
Good report & so many good speakers at rally.. and LS.. I really wanted to be there there & cheer you on.

Wonderful after action report (as always), Kristinn! It was an honor to participate on Saturday, although we sure wish we could've taken more time off and been there on Friday, particularly for the Walter Reed FReep. We'll make it on a Friday one of these days...
THANK YOU again for all of your hard work in organizing this amazing weekend. As others here have mentioned, we continue to be amazed at all you and the DC Chapter accomplish.
EAGLES UP !!!
